Joe Biden’s former top aide has revealed the president’s deteriorating mental and physical state was noticeable ahead of his disastrous debate against Donald Trump.
Ron Klain, who served as Biden’s White House chief of staff from 2021 to 2023, was “startled” by the president’s condition when he met with him last June to help with debate prep, according author Chris Whipple’s new book, which was obtained by The Guardian.
Whipple wrote that Klain had “never seen him so exhausted and out of it. Biden was unaware of what was happening in his own campaign. Halfway through the session, the president excused himself and went off to sit by the pool.”
